Helping Bright Students Who Struggle in School
Dyslexia, Learning Disabilities, Reading, Writing, Spelling, Homework Help
Is homework a battlefield that brings up frustrations between you and your child, takes way too long, and leaves your bright child feeling not so bright?
Dear Parent,
If you sometimes feel helpless to support your child when it comes to learning, you are not the only one. It’s a lonely feeling to see your child struggle in school. They try to hide their limitations from their parents. They avoid reporting their less-than-stellar performances with assignments because of embarrassment. Their self-esteem gets lower and lower with every ‘failure.’
Today about 14.9 million children are struggling to learn in school despite proof of their intelligence. Sadly, many of these are viewed as lazy or unmotivated. Some are taught to cope. But rarely are the problems eliminated. It doesn’t have to be that way.
I’d like to share a secret with you…
Most learning and attention challenges, including diagnosed learning disabilities and dyslexia do NOT have to be permanent. My name is Jill Stowell and together with my husband, David, we’ve been running the Stowell Learning Center for 26 years. Our unique approach is designed for struggling learners and we have literally helped thousands of students not only overcome their challenges but actually correct them.
Truthfully, ANYONE with attention challenges and learning disabilities, including dyslexia, can learn to become a successful student!
At the Stowell Learning Center, we help people of all ages overcome learning challenges, including dyslexia, ADD, autistic spectrum disorders, auditory processing disorders, and learning disabilities. How do we do it? By helping the student develop underlying processing skills that are often overlooked by most educational systems, yet they are critical to academic and social success. Here are some of the ways that make Stowell Learning Center stand out.
- Our programs and strategies are research-based and among the most highly effective available.
- We help students develop the mental tools they need to become relaxed, independent learners who succeed with less struggle.
- Each student’s program is completely individualized to meet any gaps in processing skills, attention, oral & written communication, comprehension, social skills, reading, spelling, writing, math, and study skills.
- We offer distance learning programs so geography is not a boundary to getting the help you need.
- We train teachers, learning center directors, and therapists so there are more and more skilled educators to teach our unique approach all across America.
By combining a deep respect for the child with an understanding of learning based on how the brain actually develops and learns, we bring independence into the experience for the students. And they love it!
Stowell Learning is a very different approach from
schools and tutoring…
More than any other comment, families tell us that yes, their child can now read, write, spell, and pay attention. But more importantly, we have changed the lives of both the student and the family.
We want students to do better in school, but our mission is much bigger than just academic success.
There is an old saying “Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.”
We teach and develop skills that start now and last a lifetime.
Sincerely,
Jill Stowell
